Expected new features for Node.js

Two Node.js technical steering committee members have shared features under consideration, mostly for after Version 10’s release:

N-API and HTTP/2 are coming out of an experimental phase and could debut i Node.js 10—or be delivered later. N-API features a C API for building native add-ons while HTTP/2 is a replacement for HTTP focused on performance.

Better diagnostic capabilities, which is becoming more important area as Node.js is increasingly used in production applications.

Better support of ECMAScript (ES) 6 modules. Node.js has had its own module system, but ECMAScript 6 offers a standardized module system. The plan is to provide a browser-compatible ECMAScript 6 implementation that coexists with the existing Node.js modules.
